It's time to get your dancing shoes on and give SWING DANCING a go! Get fit, meet new friends and have a ball in this fun, no-pressure environment. All welcome - come alone or bring some friends!

With a touch of vintage flavour, we're a young bunch of fun people who love to bring the dances, music and style of the 1920's-50's to today. Known for our high energy, high flying performances and super fun classes, Canberra Swing Katz specialise in Charleston, Lindy Hop and related Swing Dances.

Canberra Swing Katz offer group and private classes, Canberra's only award winning Swing dance performance team for hire, events and social dancing.

Swing dancing originated as a social dance, and that’s how we like to keep it! The funnest way to get active and meet new people, our classes are designed to get you feeling confident asap! Learn all the basic steps and fundamental leading/following techniques you need to look and feel great on the dance floor. You don’t even need to bring a partner or pre-register, just turn up on the night.

~All Welcome~

Pip and Dean have both been dancing for over 14 years and bring more than 28 years of combined teaching experience. Their love for sharing their passion for the dance shows in every class - watch out! It's contagious!

Social Dancing

Social dancing is where swing began! It means getting out on the floor and dancing with everyone in sight, from beginner to pro, and having a blast!

It’s a great opportunity to improve your dancing – but most of all it’s a great new way to make friends!

Canberra Swing Katz run a number of regular social events, so be sure to check them out!

Stick around after classes once a month (in winter) for the Swing Katz Speakeasy. 2 hours of Dj’d and live swing music for you to practice those new moves, break out your most impressive style and hang out with your new best friends! Don’t forget to keep your eye on our Facebook page for Live Band Nights.

Katz out on the town! Dancing isn’t just for classes! There are heaps of amazing hard swinging Canberra bands and touring groups out there, and we’re raring to go out and support live music in the capital!
